** Walkthrough **
Chapter 1 Burning Castle
The game starts with the opening sequence. After the King is finished talking with you (the "Prince"), talk to everyone in the castle for information. You are told to go greet the Princess of Mahamood, whose ship has just arrived. BEFORE you do this, go into the town and look for the Goods Shop (it's got a sign outside with a potion bottle on it), which is located in the lower left part of the village. Go talk to the merchant and buy NINE herbs, you will most definitely need them soon.
Next, go to the dock to greet the Princess. The dock is to the east of the village. On the dock you learn that they cannot find the Princess, so go back to Shanadar to look for her. She is in the Tavern (lower right part of the village), being harassed by three Ruffians. You will automatically go into combat mode when you encounter them. They are not difficult to defeat - do this, and then the game goes into "automatic story sequence" (i.e. you cannot control the Prince's actions but rather sit and watch the story develop). You'll soon find out why you needed those herbs.
The Prince is awakened out of his bed to learn that the kingdom is under attack, and that the King wants him to take the Princess safely back to Mahamood. The King also gives the Prince something VERY important - "Ring One", which he refers to as a record of the family's history. Follow the Tutor to the escape tunnel and go through the city's sewers (battle spiders here) and out into the city's waterway. Here, fight Sorcerers to gain EPs and build your character. When you're strong enough, fight the Imperial Soldiers marching around the city. Use the herbs to heal up the Prince when his HPs get low (each herb restores 20 HP). After the Prince reaches level 5 or 6, go back to the dock where you'll see the traitor who caused all this mess -- General Kohle. Fight him but don't expect to win just yet. He has a magical sword that causes you to faint immediately. Let him defeat you, you cannot win this battle (yet).
You'll wake up next in the hideout of the Resistance. Talk to the Leader, who tells you of a Magic Lamp you'll need to defeat Kohle and his magical sword. Be sure to say hi to the fellow at the doorway as you exit, and he'll give you a HOLY herb.
Make your way back to the castle through the waterway and sewers, and just below the fountain in the castle you'll see the Prince's Tutor. Just before he dies, he gives the Prince the Key to the Shanadar Treasury ("Key of S"). Go to the treasury at the back of the castle, use the key to open the doors, and go in and help yourself. There are six chests to open, and they contain the following: HERB (2), Hemp, Cape,, Plating, and a Kutar. Immediately equip yourself with the Cape (better protection) and the Kutar (better sword). Next, go to the bottom of the room and get the Lamp, which is sitting on a pedestal. The Genie will then join the party. IMMEDIATELY use the Hemp and the Plating on the Genie to make him more powerful. Also, the Genie can be used to heal the Prince, instead of relying on the herbs (although the herbs may still be useful!).
Go back to the Resistance hideout to rest up. Then, go back to the Dock to meet General Kohle again. At the very first opportunity, have the Genie cast VARYU on Kohle to inhibit the magical powers of the sword. That way, the Prince won't faint when struck by it. Defeat the two Soldiers flanking him and then Kohle. upon his defeat, he dives into the water swearing revenge. You are then instructed to get the Princess to Mahamood ASAP.
Chapter 2 First Mate
This chapter starts with everybody on the ship en route to Mahamood. There is a traveling merchant with the following items for sale:
TRAVELING MERCHANT ON SHIP ----item------------cost--- Holy Herb 40 Talisman 1080 Hemp 500 Plating 490 Gilding 2490
Note that you can sell him the Mantle and Shamshir sword you started with, since you won't need them any more (replaced by the Cape and Kutar). Good to buy - if you can afford it - a hemp and a plating for the Genie, and Holy Herbs with whatever's left over.
Talk to everyone on the ship. Talk to the lookout in particular, since it triggers the next part of the story. At this point, go down to the Captain's Quarters and Saleem joins the party. The ship stops at an island to get water, get off the ship here and follow the path to the village. (Along the way you will battle Cyclops and Worms)
When the party arrives at the village, go see the village elder and he will allow your party to rest and heal up there. There is a shop on the island, which has the following selection of goods:
ISLAND GOODS SHOP ----item------------cost--- Herb 20 Snake Act 30 Barrel 200 Saber 810 Cloak 1050
At this point, it's a good idea to build your characters' attributes. Go fight the local monsters and rest up at the village when HPs and the Genie's MPs get low. A good area to fight is to the southeast of the village, there's a corridor that will take you to an old temple. Here you can fight Daeva and Cockatrice monsters to elevate the characters more quickly. Get the Prince up to about level 10, then go back to the village elder to rest. Talk to all the villagers to learn more about the area as well.
Go back to the ship, where you learn that the Captain (Saleem's father) was killed by the Imperial Elite Troops - Al-Karria in particular. The party will then battle 3 Assassins then 2 Crocottas. After defeating those, Al-Karria takes the ship (with the Princess on it) and leaves. Saleem vows revenge on Al-Karria.
At this point, go back to the village and speak with the Elder to rest up. Talk to all the villagers again to learn about the Temple. Go back to the Temple, examine the FIRST text on the wall, then go BACK to the village. Talk to the Elder again, a few times. He will give you the "Mirror of Knowledge" (located toward the right side of the hut). With this Mirror, you can read the text written on the walls (which includes more spells for the Genie). Go back to the Temple again.
Inside is a maze to explore. Learn spells "Urus" and "Almaty". Read about Dogon, and at this point the party learns about polishing and plating the lamp to make the Genie stronger. Get through the first section of the maze back to the second part. There is a room at the very back where the Genie learns the spell "Raag" (TELEPORT). The party then teleports to Mahamood and finally leaves the island.
Chapter 3 Capital Gylan
Start at Saleem's home in Mahamood, where the party can rest. There are three shops here: a weapons shop, an armor shop, and a goods store.
GOODS SHOP ----item------------cost--- Herb 20 Snake Act 40 Holy Herb 80 Talisman 2580
As soon as possible, equip Saleem with a Chakram. Get a Bandana for the Prince, a circlet for Saleem, a Jambiya for the Prince, and shields for the Prince and Saleem. This will maximize attack and defense for the party (note that the Genie does not use armor or weapons).
Go to the Mahamood Castle (north of village). Talk to everyone, *particularly* the Magician. He tells you to get a Passport to get into Gylan castle. There is an Imperial Soldier at the SW corner of the village who deserted the army. Talk to him and he will give you a passport that will get you into Gylan Castle.
Next, teleport to Gylan and go into the castle (don't hang around the docks south of the Castle unless you want to build up the characters), use the passport to get in. Inside there is another maze with a few treasure chests scattered. Open as many as possible. When you locate the Princess, a trap door opens and traps the party in a dungeon below. Here, Kohle reappears. Again, have the Genie cast VARYU on him (to disable the magical qualities of his sword) and defeat him a second time. Agmar the Thief joins the party at this point. Search Kohle to get the Key of Gylan ("Key of G"), then read the inscription on the wall to rest up and heal the party completely. use the key to escape from the cell and wander throughout the underground maze to find a way out. Down here you can learn the following spells (by reading wall inscriptions) for the Genie: "Amultart" and "Asma". Find a Jambiya sword (equip Agmar immediately with it) and an F. Stone (for later use). There will be one area you cannot access due to a force field, come back to it later. Note that Agmar's levels will increase RAPIDLY as long as he is conscious at the end of a fight.
Explore the castle THOROUGHLY. Open every chest, there are lots of goodies to be had here. Get the princess using the Key of Gylan. When finished, exit the castle through the south - but just before exiting HEAL UP the party with the Genie's spells (Alma, Almaty) and/or herbs and holy herbs.
As soon as you exit the castle Al-Karria catches up with the party. Here you will confront three Elites. Defeat them - and Al goes back into the Castle while the party goes back to Mahamood.
Chapter 4 Lost Tomb
To start this chapter the Princess gives the Prince an Amulet ("can put dead spirits to rest"). Make sure that the party is equipped with the following weapons and armor at this point:
Prince: Arm = Jambiya Head = Bandana Body = Shield
Saleem: Arm = Chakram Head = Circlet Body = Shield
Agmar: Arm = Jambiya Head = Turban Body = Shield
See the Magician Kala Han in the Library again, he tells you to go see his cousin in the Village of Ulk. The third ring is supposedly hidden in the "Tomb of the Wise" near there.
Teleport (with the spell "Raag") to Ulk, where you will find a deserted village. There are some bandits there - defeat them, then the villagers will come out of hiding. The basement of one of the buildings is where you can find Tala Han, talk to him. Rest the party there as well (ie talk to the guy by the bed). The Tomb is just east of the village bu the Bandits stole the Hammer needed to open the gates.
There are three merchant shops in Ulk: Weapons, Armor, and Goods.
GOODS SHOP ----item------------cost--- Herb 20 Holy Herb 70 Worm Act 180 Gilding 4980
Here is the ideal weapons/armor configuration for the party at this time:
Prince: Arm = Jambiya Head = Bandana Body = Shield
Saleem: Arm = Chakram Head = Circlet Body = Cuirass
Agmar: Arm = Kris Head = Mask Body = Shield
There are two places in Ulk where the party can rest up. The first is the basement where Tala Han lives. The other is in the sheep's pen: go up to the sheep and examine it. The Prince will count it. Examine again, the Prince counts again. A third time and the party falls asleep (cute, huh?) fully rested and healed.
The next goal is to get the Hammer from the thieves. Leave Ulk via the north exit, then go W and N through the forest path. You will eventually cross a bridge going east and then around some hills toward the south and east. When you spot the hideout the party hides behind some trees to listen for the password. After this, go up to the cave entrance and use the password to enter (automatic). Go into the caves, particularly the back area where the hammer is located. Also here is some Silk and Gilding (for the Genie). In this part of the cave the party will encounter the Trifids (monsters). On the right hand part of the back caves is a wall inscription that you can read to rest undisturbed. Finish examining cave and upon exiting, Ali Baba and his thieves will be waiting outside. Defeat all the bandits and Ali Baba, then go back to Ulk to rest.
After the party is rested up, go to the goods store and stock up COMPLETELY on herbs and holy herbs; maybe a gilding or two to get the Genie's powers up. Next, leave Ulk via the north and then go EAST to the Tomb entrance. Use the Hammer to go inside the Tomb of the Wise.
The tomb is another maze. Immediately go up to the wall inscription, it is for the Genie spell "Kshasla" (clear obstacles). More inscriptions talk about destiny, the Rings, etc. (fyi, Ring One = Ring of Power, Ring Two = Ring of Words, Ring Three = Ring of Soul and all three make up "Destiny").
At the top part by the lava stream cast "Kshasla" to freeze the lava. The party can now walk on it. Get the crystal from the chest (use on Genie immediately). Also up here are wall inscriptions with the spells "Halwtart" (incredibly useful!) and "Skanda".
Open all chests, particularly the ICE treasure chests. There is also the spell "Ashawan" on a wall inscription. In the ice area, you will slip until stopped. Here, the goal is to get to the steps leading down that are located off to the left part of the ice field. It is possible to maneuver throughout the ice chests to get over to those stairs. Plan the moves so that you slide into a chest that will be positioned to let you slide into another one. It's a little tricky but there is a solution. At the bottom level (down these stairs) there is a room at the back with a line of Gargoyles (guarding Ring Two). As you pass each pair of Gargoyles, they come to life and you have to battle them. At the end is a chest containing Ring Two. When you get the Ring, you will hear a message from Jamseed about the Rings.
After exiting the Cave, the Princess meets you and begs for the Genie's Lamp. The lovesick Prince gives it to her, at which point it is revealed that it's really Al-Karria in an illusion. He disappears with the Genie Lamp. (The Genie is not in your party at this point)
Go back to Ulk and talk to Tala Han and the Resistance member down there who wants you to go back to Shanadar with him. First, rest up, stock up on herbs and holy herbs, then go outside and meet the ship.
The ship takes the party back to Shanadar. Here, fight the Commander. Al-Karria gets the other two Rings from you while forcing you to fight your zombified father (the deceased King) and your own Genie. Defeat them, free the King's soul with the Amulet the Princess gave you, get the Genie back, and this ends Chapter 4.
Chapter 5 Ahriman
Shanadar has now been liberated, and the shops re-opened.
GOODS SHOP ----item------------cost--- Herb 20 Holy Herb 20 Snake Act 30 Worm Act 180 Silk 8880
Here is the ideal weapons/armor configuration for the party at this time:
Prince: Arm = Falchion Head = Helm Body = Shield
Saleem: Arm = Chakram Head = Circlet Body = Cuirass
Agmar: Arm = Kris Head = Mask Body = Herberk
The Hilt can be used with the F.Stone (recovered at Gylan Castle) to create a sword called "Firenar", which has average strength for a sword but also emits FIREBALLS. The Pillow is a very odd item. It can be used during combat by one of the party members to sleep and recover HPs. Yes, DURING COMBAT. Go figure. %^)
This is a good time to build the characters. One good way to do this is to teleport back to Ulk and go back to Ali Baba's caves to fight the Trifids at the back of the caverns again. The loot is good and the characters can always re-heal themselves by reading the wall inscription and resting. This way, the party can afford the weapons and armor for the above configuration, and also afford some Silk to get the Genie's HPs up. Note also that the party can teleport at any time (while outdoors) to any village using the Raag spell, so if there's something from one of the other shops you want, use Raag to teleport there to get it.
Next, go back to Gylan. Fight Al-Karria right away and get the Key of the Empire ("Key of E") from him. Go to the door that did not previously open and use it. When you get to the force field, cast the spell "Kshasla" to stop it. Go up through it. When the party encounters the General, cast VARYU immediately since he's wielding one of those magical swords. You can now explore a new area of Gylan castle, be sure to collect all the treasures here. One of the force-field-protected areas contains a chest with "Sp. Mantle" in it, which can be used by the Prince.
Get through the maze to the back room to confront Al once again, this time as a magical beast called "Skylla". Defeat him and go through to the back. Watch as the bad guys turn the Rings to ash and Ahriman is brought back to life. The party winds up back at Mahamood.
Rest up and don't let your comrades talk you into giving up. Talk to the Magician once more and then go back to Gylan castle where the rings were burned. Collect the rings' remnants ("Ring Ash") for later use. Return to Mahamood to see Kala Han the Magician again, and he explains how to "resurrect" the rings in front of Ahriman. When the party leaves the castle, be sure to talk to the villagers. One of them is ranting about the "Tower in the Desert", the Tower of Jiklart. This is the next destination.
Cast Raag to teleport to Jiklart. Upon entering the Tower, you'll see a teleport dot just above and in the center. This isn't very useful until you find the Key of the Tower. Instead, explore the levels (via the stairs) and collect the treasures from the chests scattered around. Find the Poisonar Sword (inflicts nominal damage but poisons enemies in the process). There are two spells inscribed in the walls here: "Ast" and "Afnawar". Note that some of the treasure chests here contain monsters called "Zu-Z" and "Zu-A". If you open one of these chests you will fight the monster. Defeating Zu-Z or Zu-A will result in a LOT of money and some good EPs, but the real treasure of these guys is that they will cast a whirlwind spell on the Party to whisk it to a different area of the Tower. Zu-Z sends the party to a Zu-A, and vice- versa. Use them to go from one side of the tower to the other. NOTE: Zu-A and Zu-Z do NOT fight the party; just cast the whirlwind.
Search the entire area to also find the Key of the Tower ("Key of T"). Also find the Talwar Sword. It's a good idea to have the Genie cast Halwtart during the easy battles to replenish his MPs. Keep going upwards until you find the Roc. When you find him, defeat him and he will then offer to fly you to the "Other World". He can be used to fly the party back and forth, if so desired. Since a LOT of money will be acquired during this phase of the game, it might be wise to leave the tower once or twice to go buy some things for the Genie (Silk, Gilding, or Plating) to get his attributes up.
Note: after you have the Key of the Tower and have unlocked some doors upstairs with it, you can use the afore-mentioned teleporter to take you up quickly.
After going up, you'll come to some purple-walled areas in the back. Explore the area thoroughly - included in the treasures are "Crystal" (use on Genie), "Sp. Cape", "Kwarnaf", and a "Power Pot". At the end of this section is a teleporter which takes the party to a different part of the Tower. There are wall inscriptions here, read them all. More chests can be opened: "Speed Pot", "Sp. Cape", and "Crown". Off to the left is a room with four statues ("Salwa"). When you enter the room you will be attacked by each, one at a time. After defeating all four, heal up the party and take the teleport in that room.
Read the wall inscription in this next area carefully, which describe the "Beginning", the "Next", and the "End". This is the order in which you must solve this puzzle.
--*-- / | \ / | \ B = Beginning | | | N = Next | | | E = End N E B
The first thing to do, as described by the inscriptions, is to get the Evil Eye. This is located in a chest in the lower left area. Get it, take it to the statue at "B" and the Taarmaty will come to life. Defeat it and move on to the Next ("N"). When you examine this stature, the eyes glow red and fall out - at which point you acquire the "Dead Eye". This Taarmaty comes to life too, and defeat it to go on. Go back to "E", the "End", and put the Dead Eye in the Taarmaty statue there. It will come to life and after it is defeated the walls start to glow. Take the new teleport nearby to the next area.
Here, there are chests similar to the Zu-A and Zu-Z chests from earlier, except these chests contain Marzu-A and Marzu-Z monsters. These DO fight back and must be defeated in order to activate the whirlwind that whisks the party from Marzu-A to Marzu-Z, and vice-versa. There are a couple chests in the area that do not contain Marzu-A and Marzu-Z, and in these can be found a "Crown" and a "Bottle". The passageways tend to be circular here, at the bottom of one will be two treasure chests (you're coming from the right):
--------------- |C1| |C2| ---------------
Open C2 and defeat the Marzu monster to get to the other side of C1. Soon you will find another teleporter, take it to get to the next area.
This next area contains three chests: "Power Pot", "Speed Pot", "Life Pot". ***NOTE: DO NOT USE these on a character whose corresponding attribute is maxed out at 99; for example, if the Prince has SPEED = 99, do not use the Speed Pot on him since it will be wasted. His speed will never get higher than 99. Check your characters first to see if they could really benefit from these pots before using them (if nothing else, the Genie can always use them since he never raises a level and gets stronger only by found and bought items).
There are four statues in this area, and an inscription to read in the center ("Dolge, the Wizard of Lies, has three false forms. His only true identity is..."). Three of these statues are illusions of Dolge, and one (the TOP one) is the real thing. Might as well fight them all in case one of the characters can advance a level.
After defeating the real Dolge (at top) a teleporter appears. Take it and go to the next area. This next area has three floor switches that activate passage-blocking walls. Search the area for a wall inscription that gives a hint at how to solve this: activate all three wall switches from left to right (to block all three passages), then go back to the left one and activate the left one to OPEN the passage. There is another teleporter here, take it.
This is the final area. A wall inscription tells you this. The party will be met almost immediately by Akmanaf - defeat him and go up to the chamber above. This is the room where Ahriman awaits. As the party crosses the room, HPs are drained from each member with each step. Just before reaching Ahriman at the top, heal up everyone completely for the final battle with Ahriman.
Talk to Ahriman, the Prince brings the rings back with the Lamp (as Kala Han instructed), and then the party fights Ahriman. Strategy for beating him: allow the Genie to IMMEDIATELY cast Wofmanaf as many times as possible to boost the party's defenses. When one party member gets low on HPs, cast Almaty. Do not use the Genie to fight Ahriman, but rather as a defensive weapon and a healer (also to remove poison when it gets bad for one of the other characters; also to use Worm Act to revive any fallen party members). He is not too difficult to defeat, and after several rounds he should be dispatched. Here the game goes back into Story mode and the game is finished.
General strategies
If the Genie has all his MPs, use him to fight the harder monsters (not Ahriman) with one of the offensive spells. Be sure to use him regularly to heal everyone with the Almaty spell. Sometimes it's good to look for a fight with fairly weak monsters so that he can immediately cast "Halwtart" to go back into the Lamp and regenerate MPs. The party can stay out in mazes and caverns indefinitely using this technique.
Keep the party completely stocked with Herbs, Holy Herbs, Snake Act, and Worm Act. They're not expensive and you never know what's going to happen.
Always attack the same monster when being attacked by a group -- do NOT spread attacks over the whole group. This will limit the number of attacks the monsters can hit you with.
When fighting monsters with the "fast drop attack" (they rise into the air for a round or so), after the monster has risen have all members PARRY (have Agmar HIDE) to reduce/minimize the damage from the attack.
Other than the above case, in general it is NOT advantageous to use Agmar's HIDE/ASSAULT attack -- in the space of two attacks (say 200% damage) he will only get in one attack (equivalently about 150% damage). Only useful in above and when he's really hurt and needs to be healed.
The "Pillow of Dreams", which can be bought at the Shanadar Goods shop, is not very useful if the Genie has the Halwtart spell.
** Monsters **
(Notes: I couldn't determine exactly how many HPs each monster had, so I just listed a number that WILL KILL. In most cases, the number of HPs each monster has is less than the value listed in the "HPs to Kill" column, but for some of the more difficult monsters a RANGE is provided)

(1) The Genie's hit points are whatever they were before Al-Karria stole the Genie from you. (2) Vrtra and Titan combined result in 465 EPs and 772 Dinars, no separate numbers available. (3) The Zariche monsters seem to each have different HP values.
